The clutch cable is an essential component because it connects the clutch pedal to the clutch fork. Having two levers and a cable facilitates pressing the clutch in most uses.
Clutch cable functionThe clutch pedal is a lever that boosts the amount of force applied to the pedal. When pulling on the clutch cable, the other end tugs on the clutch fork causing the clutch to release. So when the clutch feels a little tight, the force is produced when the clutch pedal is released and the clutch pulls the cable until it becomes tense. The clutch cable should always be in perfect working condition to promise reliable function of the entire system.
Common issues with a faulty clutch cableA faulty clutch cable can lead to the transmission slipping out of gear, the clutch sinking to the floor, and putting it into any gear will cause grinding.
